    How can I properly use a “rel” target outside of the main menu, to activate the lightbox for a video popup like :

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxVX970Mk1A" rel="lightbox" /a>

    I’m able to link to link youtube videos to popup the lightbox via the main menu (go to Learn > Getting Started Video) However, when I link to a video in the same way anywhere else it video won’t play. Click on any of the three boxes below the main slider, and they popup the modal window, but the video won’t play. Or click “Learn More” on the main slider, same thing.

    What is the issue?

    Hi Michae1!

    It has trouble in some areas like the header but if your using it in the slider I think it should be working. Try this out real quick, https://kriesi.at/support/topic/cannot-open-lightbox-from-header/#post-486660.

    EDIT: Ahh ok, it looks like you added some HTML into the button URL. Just add your youtube URL to the button instead of the full link tag and it will work.

    So instead of this..

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxVX970Mk1A" rel="lightbox" /a>

    Just use this.

    Hi Elliott!

    Worked! The HTML was an attempt at a workaround. Guess I was just over thinking it :) Thanx!
